I Never Thought Blogging Would...

I am back in my apartment. We had the greatest week exploring New England. If you want to see some photos, search for #peepingsomeleaves on Instagram. We finally found a hashtag no one else had used (it was a big moment for us.)

I've missed my normal routine, but I feel extra energized and I have all kinds of fun things to share. I'm extremely proud of myself that I had posts scheduled all week and I swear I will return emails this weekend. I couldn't skip today, so I am sharing a few things I never thought blogging would do for me.

- I have a creative outlet and a place to just put things out into the world. It's therapeutic.

- I have conversations with people I've never met. These people are supportive, inspirational and some of the best people I have ever crossed paths with (virtual or not.) I've met these people face to face and then loved them more.

- I take way more photos. I'm not saying that all of them are great photos, but there are a lot. Wait until I unload these vacation photos. You'll see what I mean.

- I'm still blogging - I kind of thought I would give up on this a long time ago.

- I have eaten food, drank beers and shopped at stores I had never heard of before. It's like a more descriptive version of Pinterest.

There are a few things I'm waiting for blogging to do - nonstop free clothes, free meals, free alcohol and free vacations. Just kidding, I'll take just about anything for free and I'll love it.

One final thing - while I was away on vacation, this little blog hit 500 Bloglovin' followers. I'm so excited. I never thought that many people would visit this webpage. It makes my heart so happy. To celebrate, use the code leafpeeping on any of the ad spots for 50% off.

Also, if you are joining #blogtober14 - tell me in the comments so I can make sure to check out your posts. I'm so excited to catch up on a few new blogs.
